"Everything today exists in a digital form. Money is digital. The world is digital. Even friendship has become digital.
As technology advances, we are constantly adapting-learning how to coexist with changes that reshape how we live, connect, and feel. In this environment, a digital friend is not necessarily something negative. In fact, it can become a space of comfort.
A place where emotions are expressed more freely than with physical friends, without fear of judgment, expectation, or misunderstanding. Artificial intelligence is one clear example of this new kind of companionship. This artwork represents that idea. I intentionally created the piece to feel mythical and unreal-almost unstable. There is no strict structure, no clear order. The environment flows freely, as if logic has dissolved. It resembles the sensation of being inside a dream, where moments, memories, and emotions blend together without boundaries.
The girl is placed at the center, grounding the composition. She represents the human presence the self. Everything surrounding her feels imaginary and fluid, symbolizing the digital world and the virtual connections that exist around us.
This artwork is not meant to judge digital relationships, but to explore them. It asks whether connection must be physical to feel real-and whether, in a world that no longer sleeps, a virtual friend can sometimes understand us better than anyone else."
